A review by katharine_opal
Greater Secrets by Ananth Hirsh, Tess Stone

3.0

I have loved several of Anath Hirsh and Tess Stones's works, so I was so excited to read a graphic novel by both of them together! The art, of course, is gorgeous. I absolutely love the art, and the page flow is pretty fantastic. Unfortunately, the story itself falls a bit flat for me. It had several story concepts I enjoyed, but the overall plot felt confusing. I think I understand what their journey is meant to represent, but the plot ideals are so nebulous that I found myself confused about what is actually meant to be real or not within the story. Also, is magic real in this world or is it not? I enjoyed that the story's magical elements are based on Hinduism which is something I feel like I rarely ever see! If the story had been less vague in certain plot sections, I think I would have enjoyed it more.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!
